    The few "time" that?
  2. Nitpicking
    The whole "Twice" thing is supported by exactly no stories, and no Words of Brandon. It would appear to be pure fannish imagination at this point.
  3. Nitpicking
    Building on Aekiel2 ... isn't that also how Chiri-Chiri reacts to consuming lots of Investiture?
  4. Nitpicking
    Brandon seems to like (at least implying) that things are weakly inherited, like light eyes for descendants of Shardbearers. (Why are eyes so incredibly significant, anyway?)
  5. Nitpicking
    Taldain magic isn't location dependent, it's just that the source of Investiture for Sand Mastery (at least) is sunlight, which is only available on Dayside. It's vaguely implied that Sand Mastery is inherited sort of like Allomancy, isn't it?
  6. Nitpicking
    Hoid does think that there's a trick to getting dead dragons to talk at the end of WaT.
  7. Nitpicking
    No. Thousands. The Shattering was only about 10,000 years before Elantris. Not billions of years.
  8. Nitpicking
    Hoid is a Dawnshard Sliver (or whatever term Brandon settles on). And a Radiant. And an allomancer. And has Breath. He's kind of a special case. In any case, Identity between Hoid's own body (those cells) and, well, his own body would not be surprising and has nothing to do with changing Identity.
  9. Nitpicking
    That shows that Retribution didn't succeed in destroying Nightblood, not that he didn't try.
  10. Nitpicking
    What makes you think Retribution won't do anything? WaT ends quite shortly after he attacks Hoid, right?
  11. Nitpicking
    Nale has a history of stealing swords. He stole his Honorblade back from the Shin.
  12. Nitpicking
    I'm pretty sure Investiture affects the metal itself when it makes the metal completely disappear from the Physical Realm. You know, by burning it?
  13. Nitpicking
    I was torn, because mentioning it was a DP spoiler would, itself, be a DP spoiler.
  14. Nitpicking
    Rashek is said to have survived being beheaded, something only seen in a non-canon work SPOILER
  15. Nitpicking
    The Singers do bond with lesser spren, by hosting the spren in their gemhearts. The benefit they get is their forms, everything from nimblelform to Regal, which grant anything from greater strength (workform) to throwing lightning bolts (stormform).
  16. Nitpicking
    IIRC the ant wasn't real. It was a Cognitive (Spiritual?) construct.
  17. Nitpicking
    For me, the whole Journey to the Spiritual Realm was quite boring and drawn-out. I skimmed.
  18. Nitpicking
    So you're saying that Hoid knows things he hasn't taught his apprentice?

    I feel like correcting myself: atium ferrings (or full feruchemists) who are also atium mistings (or Mistborn) can compound atium.
  21. Nitpicking
    They certainly know he was part of the Shattering.
  22. Nitpicking
    Navani is a Bondsmith and a fabrial engineer. She could hack the magic system. But I was kidding.
  23. Nitpicking
    It'll be interesting when Lift realizes she can give Lifelight to other Radiants, and everyone starts piling food up around her and asking her to please, please fill gemstones so they can do stuff.
  24. Nitpicking
    I assume they're old-school fabrials, like Soulcaster fabrials. Old-school fabrials have Radiant-level spren voluntarily choosing to become useful tools. (Compare to SPOILER FOR YUMI AND THE NIGHTMARE PAINTER:
  25. Nitpicking
    Both Scadrians (extra Preservation) and Nalthians (extra Endowment) have more Investiture than humans from other worlds like Roshar or Threnody.
